Earn Money Writing Articles Online for Info Barrel

Updated on July 16, 2012

You can Earn Pennies or Real Money

Earn money writing articles online for Info barrel from your own home. This is a relatively new social writing site. This does not reflect against your capacity to write articles and earn money online. Being new means you can virtually get in on the ground floor. You can meet new writers and renew acquaintances with old ones.

Before you go any further, if you are not prepared to put in long hours of hard work writing good articles, then forget about trying to earn good money. There are many people that do earn big money writing online. No they do not earn big money by writing a few articles then sitting down to read a book.

They continue to research and find ways of sharing their knowledge to others. Part of writing is sharing your knowledge with those less informed on certain subjects.

Many people say I wouldn’t know what to write about. Use your own life experiences to draw upon. If you really have no experience, which is hard to believe, then research a topic from many different books, internet, and the library. Armed with this, you need to sit down and write the information you have learned in your own words. Do not copy other peoples articles, this is not allowed.

How to succeed with info barrel

Well written articles, with over five hundred words will rise to the top and be searched by Google earning you more with Adsense. Info barrel pays 75-85% with Adsense on articles written for them.

Join info barrel, and start writing good articles the more you write the more successful you will become and the more money you will earn.

Once you have written a few good articles, join up for an Adsense account before writing any more articles, if you haven’t already done so. I need to explain to those who do not realize that all articles do not earn as much as others. Some may not earn anything while others will earn good money.

Info barrel request that you write ten articles before you are approved. You write one article then upload it, then write nine more. As each article is approved it is published. If you write well written articles then you will be given approval to write more without waiting for approval. This is a great way to assure that the content you have written is of good quality.

Keywords are the key to earning money

Research how to use keywords so you can earn more money. This is an important part of earning money online. It can make the difference in earning pennies or dollars.

Contests

They have contests each month where you can earn extra money. You are paid extra for writing thousand word articles, than a four hundred word one. The person to write the most articles on a given subject for that month earns more rewards.

Administration

The admin on this site is the best I have seen. If you have a problem, send them an email and they will reply to you by the next day. Or you can ask for information from other members in the forum.

Why write for two different sites

If you write similar articles for different writing sites, then you can add or create backlinks from one article to the other. This helps achieve more readers, more clicks and impressions, and hopefully earn more money with Adsense. Learn the rules for each site, before posting articles and adding links.

Would you like to start writing articles and earn money – no experience required?

If this sounds like the place to start writing then feel welcome to join with my referral or withoutmy referral the choice is entirely up to you, although I would really love you to use my one.

If you would like to start writing with hubpages then feel free to join me here now.

Good luck with your writing and I hope you can earn some dollars with it too.

"First you will need to join up for an Adsense account before writing any articles, if you haven’t already done so."

I think there's a good chance Adsense will reject accounts with zero content.

Anyway thanks for the hub !

It seems like infobarrel is more strict than hubpages but its earning potential looked promising. :)

Nice, informative hub. :)

Moneylady 6 years ago from Texas

I enjoyed this! I will be back to read more of your writings.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Beats me, Actually they are great. You do need to write 10 articles, when they are approved and they do approve them. as long as not rubbish. then you write articles and upload very easily. Good system. They are still reasonably new and improving all the time. You should come and give it a go. cheers. Merry xmas.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

money lady, Thank you, you are more than welcome to stop by at any time. thanks. have a merry xmas

Amez 6 years ago from Houston, Texas

Thanks for the info, Just courious though, what I've written here belongs here right, You should right new stuff there, if so I'll be here a good while, I feel I support those that have supported me, unless I missing the actuall structure of what Hubs represents or how all this works. and everyone is doing the same because thats the way it is.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Amez, you need to do whatever you are comfortable with.

I write for three different sites,Helium, hubpages, and infobarrel. I love them all. To me each one offers different things.

Also by writing for a couple of sites you can link articles and create backlinks which in time will help you earn more money. Or just have more people enjoy your writing it is entirely up to each individual what they do. the main thing is to enjoy writing and meeting new people. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment. Merry Xmas Eileen

Jens solitude

Kitty Whitty 6 years ago

Thanks a lot Eileen! I read your hub and I think it's full of a lot of information that is very useful! I'm just really getting started with Helium, associated content, and Hubpages; But I will check out infobarrel too, and if I decided to join, I will do so under you! Again, thanks for the info. I have been looking for a very, very long time for ways to make extra income, but has yet to find one.

Kitty Whitty

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Kitty whitty, It takes time in the beginning to get started you need to do a lot of writing and it does not happen over night. But keep at it and you will be rewarded. Remember some articles will not earn much at all where others will earn more.

Kitty Whitty 6 years ago

Thank you for the positive uplifting-I really needed that! I will continue to work real hard, and I will keep you informed about my progress.

This hub is good. I have infobarrel on my list of things to do but your article has given me a good overview of what I should expect. Thanks .. this has made planning much better! x

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

shazwellyn, It will help you to get links from hubpages to. like any writing site it is no good joining if you do not write articles for them to get your backlinks. Thanks for stopping by

shazwellyn 6 years ago from Great Britain

THANK YOU, Eileen! I have given myself a break on writing to do some learning and regigging of hubs. I will return and have hub ideas banked. Hope to catch up with you soon x

Hi there Eileen!

Thanks for your hard work on this informative article.

I also wanted to say "Hi" - I was amazed to see that your location is Rockingham, WA! I'm over in Leda. *waves*

I just get used to thinking that a lot of these bloggers are Americans, but... I guess not!

Jo (again) 6 years ago

I just joined up to Infobarrel using your referral link too! Glad to boost another sincere writer a little. :)

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Jo, Hello neighbour. Glad you could join up over there. Now you need to start writing articles. Also I notice you are not a member here so why not join up at hubpages and write for both. That way you can put backlinks from one to the other.

Read how others use backlinks, or I can try and help you if you like. Above all have fun and enjoy writing and making a few dollars as well. good luck.

Positive and truthful review, this is definitely a site people should be looking at.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Cwilliams, thanks for your positive comment on info barrel

bonny2010 6 years ago from outback queensland

hi again - this is a very interesting hub, has me thinking about joining, one question though - can you use on infobarrel a story you have published on hubpages or is that wrong - anyway whichever goes - I really enjoyed this hub so thanks again

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

bonny gee u still going. have fun, No you have to have original articles. And in all honesty it is better to write fresh info.

Of course you can write a similar article with same topic but from a different angle. Like what bait to use to catch fish. or where the best fishing places are to catch fish.

Something like that. By doing that you can put one on hubs and one on info barrel and have links from one to the other as back links. This way you get more readers

Great info thanks

Hmm kind of sound like trinod but without having to write nine of them. Your articles have to get approved there too. I have has some rejected with them. I may check this out.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Jannyc, It is done that way to stop a lot of spam and to make sure that you write good content.

They do not tollerate bad language etc. thanks for reading. It is also so easy to upload all in one go except for images they go up separate.

Deborah Demander 6 years ago from First Wyoming, then THE WORLD

Thanks for the great information. I will definitely look into it.

Namaste.

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

deborah demander, I hope it helps you to earn some more money

Carrie 6 years ago

I was searching around to see if any has seen views dropping in Infobarrel. Things seemed to have slowed down, I'm wondering if Google is re-evaluating the site.

Have you noticed anything?

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Carrie, Info barrel is growing very fast, all sites go up and down and my earnings are increasing too as they mature.

Hope that helps you. You have to keep on writing with any site you write for. You cannot just write a few articles and expect to earn money it need consistency.

I do not know how many you have written so cant really say.

nicregi 6 years ago from Malaysia

Thank you for your info! I am just starting out Infobarrel and this is thus a good secondary place for me since i am deeply in love with HubPages :)

Voted up and useful :p

Eileen Hughes 6 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

You will enjoy it over there as it is very friendly and helpful. Just like hub pages

Infocera 6 years ago

They continue to research and find ways of sharing their knowledge to others.

LyndaD 5 years ago

Eileen what a great hub! I am very new to hubpages and will for sure check out infobarrel as well. Thus far loving what I am seeing here.

Eileen Hughes 5 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

lyndaD, glad to be able to help and hope you write lots of hubs and articles for infobarrel too. they are both great places to earn money from. Although your articles need to mature before you actually start making more money. Remember once you have written an article it will keep on earning for you.

Ddraigcoch 5 years ago from UK

Key wording and Seo are my weakness. I may spend a few weeks trying to read up on it. Great hub.

SusieQ42 5 years ago

Hi! I learned something about keywords from reading and rating articles for Readbud. This person said to take the exact words from your article and use them as keywords...mostly from the first and last paragraphs creating an hour glass effect. Meaning fewer words from the middle of your article. It is the most effective way.

Eileen Hughes 5 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Ddraigcoch, Thanks for stopping by. The more you read the more you will learn. Go to google and check your keywords and write your articles around them.

Eileen Hughes 5 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

Thanks SusieQ42, Actually your work the other way. You find good keywords then write your informative articles around them. Using them in the first paragragh in the middle and again at the end. Well thats what I think is best.

PegCole17 3 years ago from Dallas, Texas

Thanks for the info on this additional site that is writer friendly. I've written the first 10 articles but haven't contributed there in a long while. Perhaps if I learned more about how to navigate on the site I would be more inclined to write. It is surprising that on the few articles that I have that I'm actually earning a few pennies.

Eileen Hughes 3 years ago from Northam Western Australia Author

PegCole17 thanks for commenting. Yes IB has a great admin. If you have a problem then you can actually email them in the IB inbox.

Plus the forum is very friendly and helpful and they even give you ideas for ways to earn more money.

You should give them another go and add amazon. Plus you can even earn extra money from your photos by adding them. Check out how to do that in the forum. I have not seen other sites allowing your photos to earn money.
